'• 290-3 t Auto Dealer Faces Threal Os Conlempl Refuses To Answer Creditors Queries

Edwardsville, 111., Dec. 11—(UP) —The law office of Lt. Governor Hugh W. Cross today said the threat of contempt proceedings against automobile dealer Robert L. Knetzer was no "bluff” and a petition would be ready in a "few days." Cross, representing the • trustee for Knetzer's bankrupt partner. Arthur F. Kramer, made the threat yesterday when Knetter refused to answer several questions at a creditors' meeting here. The meeting has been postponed until January 7. In Jerseyville Cross’ law partner. John Gibbons, said the lieutenant governor was not pulling a "bluff" but the petition would not be pre sented to bankruptcy referee Thomas Williamson until a trans cript of yesterday's proceedings could be studied. Cross made the contempt threa* when Williamson declared he was powerless to force Knetzer to an swer questions.

Knetser answered some of the questions, once admitting he did hot own a car himself. He also listed such assets as a poker table, a silver service worth $750 and a lease on a duck reservoir in Stuttgart, Ark. When told that the silver service was reported to be worth $7,000, Knetzer answered: "that's just what the newspapers say.” He added that if the newspapers could get that much for it be would be happy. 1 Knetzer treated just as lightly a question concerning the value of the duck hunting lodge. “That depends on the ducks," he said.

Both Israeli an-1 Arab authorities have assured consular and UN an thorities of their willingness to open the Jerusalem-Bet'ilehem road Christmas eve to the little party which will travel the centuries-old pilgrimage route. Moshe Dayan. Israeli commander in Jerusalem, has said that he will provide transportation for all Christians who wish to make the journey. and the Arab legion commander here has assured the pilgrims of safe passage through his lines. The Christian clergy in Jerusalem has asked the Israeli and Arabs for permission to carry out the ageold rites traditionally beginning at pe*. .1. q uhi.q a 4 church ditfitartea tnveb tl9w-

It is believed pow that only one convoy will be permitted to make the trip, leaving Jerusalem in early evening and returning before dawn of Christmas day. Complete plans are to worked out next week in conferences among Christians, Jews and Arabs. RUSSIA CLAIMS (Cont. From Page One)

They set up gamoiing wheels with dolls, rubber balls and chinaware among the prizes. They even put in a “tunnel of love.” And, as the final touch, they opened a refreshment hut, with a provocative sign announcing in letters clearly visible from the sector boundary, “hot waffles, strong beer, and cognac."
